Halcyon Adventurer Plus Carbon Fiber Wing System

The adjustable Halcyon Adventurer Plus wing system is a light-weight single tank BC based around the Traveler Pro version of the popular Eclipse wing and a special design Carbon Fiber backplate which does not require a separate single tank adapter.

The specially designed waist level webbing slots allow easy adjustment of the harness length/size while on or off the diver, letting the webbing "roll" through to desired tightness, similar to the functionality of the previous Cinch system. This design reduces overall weight of the system and makes it travel friendly.

The new Halcyon AdventurerPlus wing system is a light-weight single tank BC based around the Traveler Pro version of the popular Eclipse wing and a special design Carbon Fiber backplate which does not require a separate single tank adapter.

The whole system includes Halcyon's Traveler Pro wing, the special design CF backplate complete with adjustable standard single loop harness and all stainless wear, an MC Storage Pack for backplate and an intergrated two-pocket weight system. Weight: 3.5Kg without ACB pockets. 4Kg with ACB (with SS hardware).

Both the carbon fiber backplate and wing have webbing slots, allowing the direct use of supplied cambands (with Octogrips) around a cylinder. The backplate itself is shaped to fit snugly against a cylinder eliminating the need for an adapter.

The shoulder-waist webbing slots at hip level allow easy adjustment of the harness length/size while on or off the diver, letting the webbing "roll" through when required. This design reduces the overall weight and makes the system travel friendly.

Advantages of a wing system over a "jacket type" BC are numerous. The Halcyon system depends on a one piece webbing harness looped through a sturdy backplate that should last many life times. Once donned, a webbing crotch strap (included) can be utilised to keep the whole system in place with minimum movement.

This clutter-free system is easily adjustable to suit any size (one size fits all!), any type of diving and any thickness of suit/undersuit a diver may be using.

It is ideal for men, women and young divers alike and the harness, stainless hardware and backpack can easily be moved to a twinset wing in the future.

HALCYON TRAVELER PRO WING

The Halcyon Traveler Pro is a donut shaped back-mounted Buoyancy Compensator (BC) allowing divers to enjoy perfect horizontal trim underwater. It is suitable for single tank divers from any agency and at all levels.

The inner (2nd) bladder of the wing is easily accessible via a zipper which in normal use faces the backplate.

The low drag design of the wing spreads the air in a balanced way on back of the diver, keeping the BC part of the compensator out of the way and offering unprecedented streamlining during a dive. The wing has a narrow elliptic shape which more or less matches the divers width.

There are no air-inflated side panels or pockets as on traditional 'jacket type' BC's, avoiding a "legs down" position often caused by air to the side and front of the diver. There are no restrictions on the diver's chest - making it extremely comfortable, with no chest compression, also allowing one size to fit all with no hassle.

Available in 30 and 40 lbs lift capacities.

Lifetime warranty for the first owner on RF-welded seams.

A drainage system allows water to drain rapidly from the outer cover to minimize excess weight.

What size wing? The Halcyon Traveler Pro wing comes in 30Lb (13.6Kg) and 40Lb (18.1Kg) lift capacity and the amount of lift required by a diver depends on his/her kit configuration. When deflated and flat, both size wings are similar in appearance with the 30Lb wing looking only slightly smaller. The 30Lb wing is more suitable for a lighter profile diving rig such as a single 12L steel cylinder whereas the 40Lb is ideal for divers who want that "extra bit" of lift for emergency assistance or to carry heavier cylinder setups like a 15L or an additonal steel pony (please note, Underwater Explorers does not encourage the use of steel stage or emergency bottles due to their weight).

HALCYON SECURE CINCH HARNESS

The Halcyon Secure Harness provides an infinitely adjustable fit, eliminating the uncomfortable movement found in conventional “jacket” buoyancy compensators. This perfectly tailored fit means that divers of all sizes can enjoy a custom diving configuration that supports unparalleled stability and diving comfort. Moreover, this unique system is easily convertible, allowing one to adjust buoyancy or quickly switch from singles to doubles. Regardless of your future aspirations, this flexibility means your diving system can grow with you. From your first open-water dive to your 100th deep dive, Halcyon is with you all the way.

The Adventure Plus System has the special design carbon fibre backplate (as depicted here) which does not require a separate single tank adapter.

As with most Halcyon products, an immense amount of behind-the-scenes work is required to create a plate we are proud to sell. Halcyon backplates have been refined over the years to provide the highest-quality finish and materials available.

Small details like the unique bends near the bottom of the plate create an ergonomic curve, increasing diver comfort. Meanwhile the precise fabrication process ensures the quality you have come to expect from Halcyon.

Each Halcyon backplate is made to the highest quality with a detailed process eliminating any sharp edges. Utility holes allow mating with Storage Pak to stow a variety of lift devices or SMB.

What backplate to use? While not set in stone, aluminium, plastic, nylon or the more expensive carbon fiber backplates are generally preferred by traveling or wet suit divers as they are lighter than their stainless steel counterparts. The popular backplate for dry suit diving in the UK is the stainless steel, where the additional weight is a benefit (spreading out the weight needed to compensate for buoyancy while taking it off the diver's waist). Halcyon has produced two Adventure series carbon fiber backplates, one requiring the use of a single tank adapter and the other which can be used on its own with two cambands.

HALCYON MC STORAGE PAK

The Halcyon backplate pocket is the most efficient means to store any of the various Halcyon inflatable markers with ease. Stowing your favorite lift device in a Halcyon Storage Pak provides a hassle-free storage place without compromising the ability for rapid deployment of a SMB or lift bag.

This patented Halcyon design is simple and effective; when complemented by our fixed and removable ballast options, these pockets fine tune system weighting while supporting stability and diving comfort.

10-lb. ACB System (5 lbs/2.3 kg per side)

Vertical orientation consumes less space

Simple tri-glide connection secures the ACB on the Harness waist band

Allows mounting of a primary light behind the ACB pocket

Side release buckle prevents accidental weight loss but can be quickly released
